You ask some good questions. I think the discussion should be had all over the place! I agree with Pollan's statement, "Even the most efficient health care system that the administration could hope to devise would still confront a rising tide of ...

I would love to invest 50% of my assets locally. Does my home count? ;-) Nearly 50% of my assets are definitely invested in my home. The other $5 is invested in retirement accounts - fancy 401(k)s and 403(b)s, abc & 123s. That is the money I'd lik...

A Lifetime of Change



My neighbor is dying.

He’s 93 years old. He is fading away in the house in which his grandmother lived her life, a house that has been in his family since the nineteenth century – a family that traces its roots back on this land for four hundred years. Santa Fe is an old town, by American standards.
